Barry Tiernan was confronted after Summerhill’s win against Tullamore on Sunday afternoon.
Summerhill 1-9 Tullamore 1-7 REFEREE BARRY TIERNAN was pushed to the ground and also subjected to verbal abuse following controversial scenes in second-half stoppage time of Sunday’s Leinster club championship match between Summerhill and Tullamore.
Tiernan initially awarded a 13-metre free, but then changed his decision to a penalty, on the advice of his umpire. He then reverted to a free kick after an intervention from his linesman, just as Tullamore full-back Paul McConway stood over the spot kick. Immediately on the final whistle sounded, a number of players, officials and supporters from the Tullamore club crowded around Tiernan to remonstrate with the Dublin referee.
They missed a host of frees and were far more potent from play, while they also could easily have added another couple of goals. Summerhill now advance to a Leinster quarter-final meeting with Naas, scheduled for a fortnight’s time. Scorers for Tullamore: Declan Hogan 1-1, Nigel Bracken 0-2f, Diarmuid Egan 0-1, Cormac Egan 0-1, Harry Plunkett 0-1, Michael Brazil 0-1f.
